Water evaporates, changing from a liquid to a gas called water vapor, at the surface of the oceans. This helps keep the water cycle going by moving water from the oceans to the atmosphere! When the water evaporates, the salt is left behind in the ocean.
Seed Bead Sizing. Seed beads are sized in aughts, which are different than millimeters. The most popular school of thought of the sizing of seed beads states that the size (6/0) refers to the number of seed beads per inch (6 beads per inch).
20 gauge/ 0.81 (usually printed 0.8mm) is good for pendants, charms, items with heavy beads (crystal, glass). Be careful of your fingers with this size it can cut into them. 16 + gauge/ 1.29mm (usually printed 1.3mm) not used to crochet with but for making supports and shapes to crochet on.
